    Remember: Drink water, or a similar non-coca-cola substance.

    Also, a consistent truck design is something a human at any skill level would have gotten right.

      But it doesn’t really matter for the ad if it’s the same exact truck, 99% of viewers will never notice and Coca Cola saved thousands on the production on the ad. Not saying it’s good, just stating that’s why they allowed the inconsistent truck into the ad.

        Another point that just came to me: Ads are the most effective if the customer doesn’t know about the product being advertised. Everybody already knows about Conk. (I’m referring to them as “Conk” now). So, Conk probably doesn’t need that annual “Holidays are coming” ad.

    Idea for a new job:

    Become an expert consultant on having just the right amount of AI bullshit in your ads to generate a ton of free engagement (like this thread) without taking away from the effect in people casually watching it who hopefully won’t notice.

    Seriously, discussion over this, here and elsewhere, has forced more Coca-Cola branding into my brain than I think I’ve seen in the past year.

    So it is not just AI slop, it is bad AI slop. They didn’t even spend the money to find someone who is capable to write the right prompts.

      If you’re concerned 😟 about giving conk free publicity, maybe avoid saying the true name of conk. Publicity has the most effect when people don’t know about the product being advertised. So by calling it conk, you make it harder for people who don’t know conk to learn about conk.

      I drink water.

      It’s hard to avoid the Coke company though, they have their hand in almost everything.

    It’s not pure AI, it’s weirder than that.

    In one of the ‘behind the scenes’ videos they briefly show a comfyui workflow, essentially a ‘video to video’ workflow. Secret Level most likely makes a very basic 3d animation for the video model to iterate on, essentially slapping on an ‘AI filter’. That’s probably why it took so many people too. They are using ltx-video-2b-v0.9 for those wondering.

    Where the ‘70000 prompts’ number comes from, I have no fucking idea.

    Coca cola does so many more evil things than this, an AI ad is relatively nothing. I am mainly just looking into Secret Level here.

      I’m now imagining the model spitting out credible trucks and them demanding botched trucks to boost engagement by people mocking the AI ness of the ads.

    I love how someone put in the work to illustrate the “designs” :D Contempt can be a great motivator.

    To be honest, I don’t know anyone who drinks that boomer juice on a regular basis.
